Great idea! Hope all the major tournaments get wind of this and use it to prep the machines as you suggested. Mods spotlight this!

Can someone post a replay of this map? Should be just as good.

jnkw, I noticed at the end of the camera sequence (which is hilarious, nice one) that you have mineral patches and geysers and the watchtower.

Do you have the gold patches anywhere? Or the high yield geyser? I doubt these are high intensity loads but for the sake of completeness.. =)

Also, what about adding the doodads that consist of particle effects? Mostly the weather-related ones. Do these load at map load or one you are in game?

Anyone still getting issues after doing this? I still occasionally get under 1 FPS sometimes on Low settings, when it was perfectly fine on Ultra settings before 1.5. Am I just out of luck?

EU and KR versions are now up! Sorry for the wait.

Actually many of the animations load on demand, so simply going into a custom game will not help. This preloader is a great way to ensure everything gets loaded. I also find it pretty funny that the map description gets censored if you have the mature language filter turned on .


Heh, apparently "Starcraft" is a banned word.

Thanks for doing this. Before stuff like this I'd have to just load a replay and skip through it.

thanks for this, I've been running a 3v3 replay at 8x before ladder games; this will be much, much better.

Done! There are also a couple of other minor additions that I forgot, like Terran burning/repair effects and all variations of the high yield mineral patches.

Awesome work, helped me alot.

I'm not sure but think i still have fps drops cause of burning death animations. Any way to add them (and acid deaths) to a later version?
